New Energy Saving Mechanisms for Mobile AdHoc using OLSR
Résumé
This article proposes two new mechanisms to allow a fair power
consumption in mobile ad-hoc networks using the OLSR routing
protocol. The key element of OLSR is the election of special nodes
called MPR nodes which are designed to broadcast control packets.
We propose to introduce new MPR selection criteria which
take into account the energy capacity of nodes. This paper presents
some simulation results which highlight the performance of our
proposition in comparison to the classical OLSR.
